Not only Guo Bing and the rest but also the men in black were momentarily stunned by Lin Yuelan’s monologue.
However, before they could react, the child turned around and said to the men in black, “Brothers in black, Feng ‘Er has led the wrong way. I’ve already taught him a lesson. We’ll be leaving now!” As she spoke, Lin Yuelan patted Liefeng’s back. Lie Feng was very sensible. He really turned around as if he was ready to leave with Lin Yuelan.
This action simply surprised Guo Bing and the other three.
‘What is going on? Did Liefeng really bring her here by mistake? But Liefeng is the general’s mount and a good companion. With Liefeng’s intelligence, it wouldn’t give a lack of response when it sees the general lying on the ground, dying by the seconds. But if it did, how could it be so calm?
‘Could Liefeng have abandoned the general and acknowledged her as the young woman as its new master?’
The four glared at Liefeng and the young woman with faint anger. However, they were on the verge of death. What could they do anyway?
The men in black saw the young woman leave with the house. Finally, they reacted. Of course, they couldn’t allow that. No matter if the young woman had barged into this scene unintentionally or intentionally, she had to stay to accompany the general and his people. She had to die!
The leader immediately shouted, “Stop!”
Lin Yuelan patted Liefeng’s shoulder, and the latter stood still. Then, Lin Yuelan turned and said with an innocent expression, “Big Brother, I told you that I didn’t mean to interrupt you on purpose. I thought to lead Feng ‘Er out to play. Who would have thought that it’d lead me to this mountain forest?
“But don’t worry. I really have not seen anything. Nothing at all!”
Well, she was just making this worse. Lin Yuelan saw the expression of the leader, and she raised one hand to make a vow. She said in a serious tone, “Big Brother, I can swear on it if you like. If I repeat anything I see here to anyone else, the rest of my current family will die a horrible death.”
Lin Yuelan rolled her eyes internally. After all, she was a single orphan with no family. The oath was just empty talk. She might have a family in the future, so she swore using her ‘current’ family.
The men in black were surprised by this turn of events. They almost let her go. The girl was too cunning!
The leader held his knife and shouted at Lin Yuelan again, “I don’t care if you come here on purpose or not, and I don’t care if you’ve seen anything. You must leave your life here!
“Besides, you keep saying that it was this horse that brought you here. Do you think I’m blind? The horse you’re riding is called Liefeng. Everyone in the capital knows that it’s Jiang Zhennan’s mount!
“So, you will have to die!”
Lin Yuelan was immediately frightened by his words. She patted for Lie Feng to turn around. With a frightened expression and nervous eyes, she looked at Liefeng and then at the leader. She gasped in disbelief, “Big Brother, what did you say? Does this horse belong to Jiang Zhennan, the famous War God of the Long Yan Kingdom and the defender-general of the state?
“But that’s impossible. Liefeng is my horse!”
The leader’s pupils shrank when he heard that Lin Yuelan was able to identify and name Jiang Zhennan.
Then, his sharp eyes shot toward the girl on the horse. He looked at her round face, soft white skin with a tinge of red. Although her facial features were not fully developed, her big eyes, white teeth, and pink lips showed that she would definitely be great beauty in the future.
Of course, she wouldn’t have that chance anymore.
